Villa Eragon
Mykonos, Cyclades, Greece
A Sophisticated Sentinel Overlooking the Aegean Sea
Mykonos is one of Greece's most popular island destinations, famous for its whitewashed architecture, rows of windmills, and vibrant, LGBTQ-friendly nightlife. This villa sits like an elegant rampart on a hill above it all.
With original stone and white exterior walls, it has all the charm of a typical Greek island home. Interiors are a triumph of simplicity, with clean lines, white arches and alcoves, as well as elegant exposed wooden beams and polished floors. Furnishing pays homage to its rural heritage with some farmhouse-style pieces, as well as modern sculptural designs.
But it also has significant add-ons. Take in the striking views of the Aegean Sea from the picture windows and the elongated rectangular panes that line the walls of the house. Or better still, admire the vistas from the generous infinity pool that sits on the edge of the property.
The home has been equipped with all modern amenities and is staffed, plus it houses up to 10 guests in two separate units. All five bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms. With a fully-equipped modern kitchen and breakfast bar, plus large dining areas both inside and on the terrace, this villa for rent in Greece is a destination for unwinding and indulging in the tranquil beauty of this island hilltop.
This extra-large villa for rent in Greece is made up of two structures. The main house has three bedrooms. The guest house has two, plus its own kitchen and living room. All bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms with stand-alone rain showers, and air conditioning. The master bedroom and one of the guest house rooms have private balconies, and all the other rooms have direct access to the terrace.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
There is a full-time butler, and three hours of housekeeping per day is provided. Additional services (at extra charge) include villa pre-stocking, excursions, and airport transfer.
AROUND
One of Greece’s most beautiful islands, Mykonos is a many faceted destination. There is much to see here, including its famous 16th-century windmills; Little Venice, a cluster of balconied fishing houses along the shorefront; the Armenistis Lighthouse; plus a variety of local churches and museums. The island is a famous destination for partygoers. The villa, however, is about 14km from the crush and bustle of Mykonos Town (Chora) and provides a quieter, slower-paced location in which to unwind.
The village of Ano Mera is a short drive, at just over 5km. The southern side of the island features fabulous beaches, with Fragia Beach only 10 minutes on foot. It's a 3-minute drive to Lia Beach, where you can snorkel and scuba dive, and 6km to Kalafatis Beach, where jet skis and windsurfing are available. Elia, Ftelia and Agrari beaches are all under 10km from the villa, and if you do feel like joining the fray, the lively Super Paradise Beach is 12km away.
A day trip to the protected island of Delos is not to be missed.
